Perfect watch for the perfect place

Found this ironic in the movie X-Men: Dark Phoenix. At the end of the movie Professor X and Erik Lensherr meeting for the chess game. On Professor X's wrist is a Milgauss. I don't think it's coincidence. Rolex knows what they doing.

I noticed that, too. Absolutely a perfect fit and a nice little Easter egg for all of the Rolex lovers who know that the Milgauss is protected from EMFs to 1,000 gauss. What other watch would you wear when playing chess against Magneto?

Did you see that Patrick Stewart is playing Professor Xavier in the new Dr. Strange movie? It's the official tie-in for the X-Men to join the MCU. Cannot wait...

It's way more likely that the film's set designer or stylist made this choice. Not Rolex. They can give two poops about product placement. Smart choice.
